The partial lunar eclipse of Tuesday, September 17th, was broadcasted around the world, including on Aruba. The Aruba Astro Research Int. is dedicated to providing astronomical news to the Aruban community, and this week, they provided images of the partial lunar eclipse.
The image illustrates the moment that the partial eclipse started and then slowly darkened the moon. These images were taken exclusively by Mr. Marcos Bislip of the Aruba Astro Research Int. at Congoweg, San Nicolas.
Mr. Bislip took the images, did some filming and even transmitted a live event through radio for the first time during the late hours of the night on the TOP FM 95.1 channel. This was considered a huge success for the astronomy organization, marking September 17th a historical day for astronomic phenomenon’s.
